Apply Now
Make sure you have health insurance when you need it. Learn more about applying after March 31.
You may change or apply for health care coverage during an annual open enrollment period. Outside of the open enrollment period, you can enroll or change your coverage only if you have experienced a situation known as a triggering event. For example, if you get married, have a baby, or lose coverage because you lose your job - all triggering events - you will have a special enrollment period.
A special enrollment period lasts 60 days after the triggering event occurs. That means if you've experienced a triggering event, you have 60 days from the day of the triggering event to change or apply for health care coverage for yourself and/or your dependent. You have many important decisions to make about your health care coverage, and we're committed to helping you understand how these changes will impact you and your family. If you have any questions, we're here to help. See below for more details:

Hi all,
Couple of quick questions about the process.
I am currently running a week 33 US iPhone with BootLoader 3.9 that has been upgraded to the Dev Teams 1.1.3 firmware and also upgraded using iClarified tutorial to baseband version 04.03.13_G. Finally it was unlocked using the leaked AnySIM 1.3.
Can some one double check my upgrade process please: -
Restore iPhone to 1.1.4 via iTunes.
Enter Recovery mode and use iPwner.
Create Custom Firmware 1.1.4 using the PWNAGE tool
Restore in iTunes to the Custom 1.1.4 Firmware.
Once complete the iPhone will be unlocked on 1.1.4, correct?
Ok so some quick questions
1. Will this process change my BootLoader or can I leave it as I am running v3.9?
2 . What options do I check when creating my custom firmware?
I assume I need to select: -
Enable Baseband Update (To allow for the unlock).
Do I need to select Neuter BootLoader and/or any of the child options?
The other options are straight forward.
Many thanks.

VIDEO: Goal by Detroit Lakes Player Getting National AttentionDETROIT LAKES, Minn. – Goaltenders already had Alex Mason's normal breakaway shot figured out. So the Detroit Lakes boys hockey player wanted to try something different.
By: Ryan S. Clark, Forum Communications
DETROIT LAKES, Minn. – Goaltenders already had Alex Mason's normal breakaway shot figured out. So the Detroit Lakes boys hockey player wanted to try something different.
What Mason did has turned him into a YouTube sensation.
Mason, 18, in a game last Friday used his backhand to lift the puck going left to right before throwing the puck over the goalie's shoulder for what many are dubbing as the "goal of the year."
"I didn't even think," Mason said about the goal. "I saw an opening and how much space I had. I've done it so much in practice, it felt natural."
Mason and Detroit Lakes were shorthanded but had a 4-1 lead over Bagley-Fosston. He wrestled the puck away from a Flyers defenseman, slipped the puck past one more defenseman before scoring.
The video was posted on YouTube and it immediately gained national attention –featured on multiple blogs and websites including the Washington Post.
As of early Wednesday afternoon, the video has been watched 674,088 times.
"Me and my friends, we check YouTube a lot," Mason said with a giant smile. "I am surprised by how many people have watched it."
Lakers coach Chris Denardo said he was surprised Mason pulled the move off in a game. But he wasn't surprised Mason could do something like that with a puck.
"Alex came into the year as our lead guy," said Denardo, who is in his fourth year at Detroit Lakes. "He had 60 points last year so it wasn't like this was magic."
Mason has been one of the Lakers better players since he was a sophomore. As a junior, he helped the Lakers overcome the loss of NHL Draft pick, Tanner Lane, to finish 16-10-1.
This year, Mason has 37 points in 24 games and has scored 16 points in the last five games. His recent play has helped Detroit Lakes win four of its five last games, which could help with the playoffs around the corner.
"The attention he's been getting is great," Denardo said. "But you want him to also get attention for the way he plays hockey and the kind of player he is."
Mason said he plans on playing junior hockey next season and hopes it leads to him playing in college.
"I'd go wherever," Mason said. "I'll go to any place that wants to give me a chance."
Clark writes for the Forum in Fargo

Suzie Bradford's sultry pop vocals are like a smooth sip of nectar. She's been influenced by such artists as Tori Amos, Sarah McLachlan & Aimee Mann, but more often, this Washington-born singer/songwriter draws inspiration from those close to her—a community of fantastic friends and musicians. In 2003 she joined with guitarist/backup vocalist (and now husband) Ben Bradford to start the musical group known as "The Side Project." They quickly began doing what they love best, playing crowd-pleasing adult contemporary music as often as they could. In 2010, they released their third album, "Wake Up Call." The Side Projects' music also has been played in Starbucks across the country and radio stations around the world.

Ride the mini trains for free again this weekend
Posted Nov 1, 2013 by Janine Dorsey
Updated Nov 1, 2013 at 10:31 AM
The weather's fine and it's mini train weekend at Largo Central Park again.
Starting at 10 a.m. Saturday (Nov. 2) and Sunday (Nov. 3), everyone ages 1 and older can ride the mini train for free.
The event regularly takes place on the first full weekend of each month and is approximately 1.2 miles long, winding through the landscape of the park. Rides are given until 4 p.m., weather permitting.
The rides are free, but they do accept donations to keep the program operating.

Reports are rolling in of voter suppression tactics slowing voting in swing states around the country.
The nonpartisan Election Protection Coalition has a real-time report and voter help on its web site.
Early reports included:
Voting machines malfunctioning in Florida, creating hours-long lines.
Voters in Pennsylvania being sent away from the polls if they don't have voter I.D.--which is not required to vote in this election.
MoveOn.org is circulating a petition demanding that Pennsylvania Governor Tom Corbett extend voting hours so that people who were wrongly turned away can come back to vote.
In Ohio, Republican Secretary of State John Husted has stirred national controversy by introducing experimental voting software in this election, and by making last-minute rule changes that could disqualify thousands of voters who make small errors on provisional ballots.
In Wisconsin, a Romney campaign manual leaked to ThinkProgress last week urged election observers to hide their affiliation with the campaign, and falsely claimed that Wisconsin law forbids voting by ex-felons, as well as enumerating restrictive I.D. requirements that are not in effect in Wisconsin.
But in Wisconsin, at least, voter intimidation by True the Vote and other Republican-affiliated election observers has not materialized on Election Day.
Election observers don't seem to be disrupting voting in Wisconsin and turnout is very strong in Milwaukee, says Joe Zepecki, communications director for Organize for America in Wisconsin.
"We've been incredibly busy and the call volume has been incredibly high," says Ann Jacobs, Attorney, Domintz & Skemp, S.C. in Milwaukee, and a member of the Lawyers Committee for Civil Rights. "People who need help are reaching out."
"We've seen tremendous turnout in the morning--especially in Milwaukee," she added.
"We've had the usual difficulties for people in terms of proof of residence. But nothing extraordinary. The observers have been dealt with well by the chief elections officials."
Overall, says Jacobs, "We're delighted that the obstructors' tactics have not been allowed to thwart the election process."
Stacy Harbaugh of the ACLU in Wisconsin concurs:
"Most problems relate to what we usually see on high-turnout elections: long lines, polling places that need more staff, optical scan machines that break down and need repair," Harbaugh says.
"Most of the questions coming in are about what proof of residence is acceptable and there is a lot of confusion over photo ID. We are getting complaints about observers, but we are generally pleased that polling place chief elections inspectors are maintaining control. When observers are disruptive or obstructing the process, chiefs are addressing it, correcting behavior or in a few cases dismissing observers from polling places."
Republicans in Wisconsin succeeded in curtailing early voting--but in Milwaukee, the early vote count was still 5,000 votes higher than in 2008, when voters had twice as long to get to the polls early.
The photo I.D. requirement was blocked in court.
But new proof of residency requirements could tie up students and voters who make frequent moves (you must show that you've been in your current place of residence for 28 days, or vote at your former polling place.)
"I don't understand why the Romney campaign would bother engaging in illegal voter suppression when, thanks to the elimination of a corroborating witness as proof of residence, municipal clerks and poll workers will be turning away eligible voters for them," says Mike Quieto, a former elections official and former candidate for Dane County clerk in Wisconsin.
Legal residents of Wisconsin who do not have their name on a lease or utility bill, whose bank statements are sent to PO boxes or whose Driver's License still shows an old address will have more difficulty registering at the polls, Quieto explains. Those most likely to be affected are newly 18-year-old high school students, elderly voters who have moved in with their children, or low-income voters "doubled up" with a relative but not on the lease.
Still, for outright voter intimidation and suppression, things look good in Wisconsin today.

Let's smoke the packers. Goo niners
State of the Option: Jim Harbaugh doesn't like Packers' tough talk about his quarterback
San Francisco 49ers head coach Jim Harbaugh has had a contentious relationship with NFL officials since he left Stanford and accepted his current position before the 2011 season. In 2012, he said a few things about the replacement refs that many other coaches were thinking (and the NFL did not want them to say), and he spent a decent amount of time talking about what he considered to be sketchy officiating after the 49ers' 34-31 loss to the Baltimore Ravens in Super Bowl XLVII.
Now, with the Green Bay Packers looking to avenge their divisional playoff loss to the 49ers in the 2013 regular-season opener for both teams, Harbaugh has engaged in some pre-emptive lobbying on behalf of his quarterback, Colin Kaepernick. In that 45-31 playoff win, Kaepernick ran wild through a Green Bay defense completely unprepared for his speed and agility, rushing for 181 yards and two touchdowns, and throwing for two more. The Packers famously consulted with a number of college coaches in the offseason to better deal with the new wave of mobile quarterbacks, but as outside linebacker Clay Matthews said this week, one of the best ways to stop a running quarterback is to make him think twice about the effects of his mobility.
"We're always trying to get after the quarterback," Matthews told the Bay Area media Wednesday morning on a conference call. "It's not like this game is any different as far as hitting the quarterback. But it does provide a clearer picture in regards to when a quarterback can be hit.
"It looks like – and, obviously, we'll see in Week 1 – it looks like any time that quarterback is carrying out that play fake, he loses that right as a pocket passer and the rules that govern that. So we'll see. We'll see the hits that are legal and aren't legal … But we feel like our game plan fits within the scheme of the officials and what we want to do."
Matthews and the Packers are invoking the NFL rule indicating that when a quarterbacks takes off as a runner, he should be treated as any other runner, and is not protected as he would be in the pocket.
Harbaugh's response? The rules contain too much of a "gray area" and leave the officials to make too many judgment calls.
"My opinion is before the quarterback's declared being a runner, then he should be afforded the protection that all quarterbacks are afforded until he declares and gets out of the pocket and starts running with the ball. Or running an option, or carrying out a bootleg and attempting to run or pass when he's outside of the pocket. But when he's in the pocket, I believe that he's a quarterback until he declares that he's a runner."
Harbaugh said that he will speak to the referees before Sunday's game, and that he has asked the league for clarification on the rule. He does not expect to hear from the NFL this week, and he is laying the groundwork in other ways — for one, he appeared to compare Matthews' comments to BountyGate in a passive-aggressive fashion.
"You're hearing a lot of tough talk right now. You're hearing some intimidating type of talk. Kind of things – same things we were hearing a couple of years ago. It sounds a lot like targeting a specific player.
"You definitely start to wonder. A man will usually tell you his bad intentions if you just listen. You know what's being said publicly, you wonder what's being said privately. You hope that their intent is not going to be anything that's not within the rules."
Kaepernick, more reserved than usual on Wednesday, made it pretty simple.
"It's football. You're going to get hit."
Let's smoke the packers. Goo niners
Clay Matthews never made a "threat", he was merely talking strategy, Harbough like to talk smack and make something out of nothing. I hope GB smokes them. I live 1.5 hours south of SF, and I am really sick of Harbough and now all the Kapernick commercials making him out to be a 3x SB winner on the way to the HOF....HE PLAYED EIGHT GAMES. Teams will be more prepared for him now that they have film on him.
Harbaugh's a hoot! Complaining about Matthew's comments while he's coaching his defense to do the exact same thing...this is merely posturing, and he knows it.
What's this "declaring" crap? Does he have to file a form with the refs or something? Does he shout to the defense, "I'm gonna run, now!"? Is that actually in the rules, someplace? "A quarterback must declare before he becomes a runner. If not, no touchy da qb.."?
Undoubtedly the Game of the Week. Go Pack!
If he fakes a handoff and is still in the pocket, he's a runner in my eyes. If he did handoff, then there is still a certain amount of time at which his is still a runner. Because the defender coming from the backside can never know if the QB still has the ball(fake handoff). This is the grey zone Clay asked the official about and the grey zone Harbough wants eliminated? If so then the QB might as well start wearing those red jersey's all year and not just at practice.
This is a red herring imo. The 9ers wont run read option unless the Packers shut down Gore and Kap in the pocket. Harbaugh is posturing to make the Packers think they're going to use the same game plan as last year. If I'm wrong and Kap runs, there's nothing wrong with smoking him as long as it's legal. It's a risk that running QB's take. Beyond that, what team goes into a game without the focus being to pressure and hit the QB? It's not like a defensive plan is centered around hitting the FB!
Harbaugh is a cry baby, was as a college coach and is as a NFL coach. Can't stand the guy. Legally hit the QB if he runs. I don't see a problem here.
Kap will truck Ghey Matthews like he did last season.
Even if the team starts taking penalties, if Kaepernick runs with the ball, hit him repeatedly. Hit him low, hit him high, hit him late. It's cheap but it will make him think twice about running.
lol Clay Matthews you ghey, shut ur pie hole you roid freak sissy boy.
I'm sure the 49er defensive staff never emphasizes "hit the qb"
if Kaepernick goes down sf can say goodbye to 2013
I think the Packers should be more worried about Aaron Rodgers not getting killed by the 49ers defense...this game could be over by the 2nd quarter
Haha... they can't catch him, how are they going to hit him? Too funny. This is not news. This is silly.
If the QB doesn't have the ball he shouldn't get hit.
The read option isn't long for this world. Only those read option QBs who also have elite passing games (see: RG3) will still be relevant down the road.
This isn't targeting talk so much as it is the perfect way to combat the read option. For all Harbaugh's fantasizing about a QB needing to "declare(d) to be a runner", he's a runner as soon as he takes the snap, no different than a running back taking a direct snap or a team running the wildcat. Teams that run these offenses should be viewed as the QB needing to "declare himself as a passer" not the other way around, otherwise there's no way to defend them because otherwise the defense is sitting on their heels trying not to get a roughing the "passer" penalty when everyone with a brain knows he's a runner. Harbaugh's complaints are paramount to Nick Saban's complaints about no-huddle offenses, it's a self serving position because he knows teams have figured out the best way to combat their teams' strength, it has absolutely nothing to do with safety or the proper interpretation of the rules.
Don't want your QB hit? Don't run the read option! Quit whining.
Hey, where is God All? All this "targeting" talk sounds a lot like what got the Saints screwed last year! Oh, wait, I forgot, we can't screw the "glory" franchises like GB or SF or NY or.......... you get the picture!
I don't see the Packers taking cheap shots on Kaepernick, because they know that SF could come back and do the same thing to Rodgers. Matthews didn't say anything provocative. He simply stated a reality that if a QB takes off with the ball he can expect to get hit. That applies to Rodgers, too. How is this "intimidating"? Isn't this what football is all about? Harbaugh's the one stirring the pot here. He ought to pick up some cheddar cheese to go with all that Napa Valley whine he's so fond of.
For all the media love about what a great coach Jim Harbaugh is, he is wrapped way too tight and is becoming the whiniest coach in the league. Matthews basically said that the packers are going to hit Kaepernick hard within the rules. What is Harbaugh's problem with that? His problem is that he knows that's how you slow Kaepernick down. I hope the Packers legally knock the crap out of him.
Funny Harbaugh doesn't mention the terrible officiating that helped his team beat the Falcons. Without it - no Superbowl loss to whine about. Grow a pair Jim...
Crunch and there go all the ta2s.
Harbaugh is a whiny b.... the rule is the rule. best way to slow the QB down is to hit him hard and hit him often.
Harbaugh himself is laying the groundwork for doubt in Colin's mind. All his blabbering and whining will cause his QB to have his head on a swivel wondering where a hit is coming from. The rules are the rules Jim Crybaby. You fake as a QB like you might run, you WILL be hit. All there is to it. If you don't want to be hit, don't call those plays.
Asking whether you can hit a QB or not is "talking tough" in Harbaugh's eyes? Before you get all adamant about hitting a QB, make sure that's not the identity of your own defense first.
Running QBs have always been hit. They put themselves in that position. Historically all running QBs eventually become pocket passers due to the hits and the results of those hits.
well if he gets hit late thats 15 yards, and i do agree all this talk about hitting qbs if they try fakes or use the read option is like the bounty program but its legal. besides you still get personal fouls for late or un neccasary hits
Truth is, if you're putting hits on the QB after a read-option fake you're just not doing your job and the ball carrier is headed to the second level. Kaep is a big boy, he can take the hits; and he'll be happy to take a hit if it means his fake worked and his RB is on his way to a nice gain.
49ers 28, Green Bay 13. Rodgers still won't have an answer for the amount of time he spends on his back. Doesn't matter what Harbaugh, Kaepernick, or Matthews said.
For being such a so called tough guy, Harbaugh sure does cry and moan a lot.
@x72 Heh... I'd love to be there when you say that to his face. Meh... who am I kidding? You would not have the nerve.
@x72 Wow. Did he kill your dog or something?
@BudPhyte If a QB is fake running with the ball, what would you like the defender to do? Stop and ask to see the ball before he tackles him?
@andy10 Um, if you think RG3 is an elite passer, you are smoking some great stuff. Kap is a better passer, has the better arm and accuracy.
You missed the point of Coach Harbaugh. He's saying if he is not running but is in the pocket handing off you cant just hit him . That's the whole reason we see roughing the QB flags. If he's running and out of the pocket he's fair game. Not running.. shouldn't be hit.
@MollyBrown Stay off the hallucinogenics, they make you paranoid.
@Shooter McGavin 19711 How about the officiating that gave the Seahawks the victory over the Packers? If the correct call is made there, the 49ers play in the first round of the playoffs and the Packers have the bye. What's with this guy???
@MrTeebs False. If you've ever played football, you'd know that on option-type plays, one defender gets assigned to the QB, another defender gets assigned to the RB. The read option is designed to take advantage of exactly this, as the QB "reads" what the defender is going to do and either keeps it or hands it off.
@Watchwolf @x72 Let me tell you this watchwolf, I'd take his lunch money and use it to buy a cold 6er. Nothing he could do about or he'd be kissing pavement. I'd say I'd give his women a thorough onceover but he's into guys so I'll pass.
@waltercolindres @andy10 Whoops, RG3's completion percentage is 3.3% higher and his YPA is only .2 lower. Pass the wacky, Walter.
@ThomasAsiano @RobbyBuff Sorry, you can hit any QB handing off. Why? BECAUSE HE'S THE ONE WITH THE BALL! And I'm not even going to mention the possibility of play action.
@beekay31 You're half right in the way you're describing the defense of a traditional option play run from the wishbone but that's not how teams have been defensing the read-option.
The whole "read" part comes from "reading" the DE/OLB to see if he's crashing on the RB or defending the QB. All the Packers have decided to do is play the read-option as teams play the option from the wishbone and assign the DE/OLB to the QB and hit him whether or not he has the ball, no different than a RB on the play-action pass, since the indecision of determining whether the ball was actually handed off or not is a death sentence.
Harbaugh knows this is the best way to defense the read-option and also knows there's nothing wrong with defending it in this manner, his comments were merely a thinly veiled attempt at maintaining the moment of hesitation that enables the read-option to work in the first place.
@x72 @Watchwolf Yeah, right. Thanks for the laugh.
What color is the sky in your world, X72?

"I dissented because I do not believe economic conditions are likely to warrant an exceptionally low federal funds rate for so long. I expect that as economic expansion continues, even if only at a moderate pace, the federal funds rate will need to rise in order to prevent the emergence of inflationary pressures. This increase in interest rates is likely to be necessary before late 2014.His reasoning, which I agree with, is that the Fed is going to get itself in trouble by making the commitment that it did, and that any useful foreward guidance we might get from the policy statement is already in the SEP, without the bad commitment.
"In addition, the Summary of Economic Projections (SEP) now contains detailed information on the forecasts of Federal Reserve governors and Reserve Bank presidents for the evolution of economic conditions and the federal funds rate under appropriate policy. My dissent also reflected the view that statements about the future path of interest rates are inherently forecasts and are therefore better addressed in the SEP than in the Committee's policy statement.

Lacker Dissent

Lacker expects "that as economic expansion continues, even if only at a moderate pace, the federal funds rate will need to rise in order to prevent the emergence of inflationary pressures." This sounds NK Tayloresque.ReplyDelete
There is another, NC Fisherine, possibility. As the economic expansion continues, and with the nominal policy rate stuck at zero until at least the end of 2014, expected inflation will drop in order to make room for a gradually higher market clearing real rate of interest.
Does the experience in Japan suggest that one also should have the other possible outcome in mind?Replies
Your NC story is what Bullard was talking about here:Delete
He has some references to the literature.
In most models it is clear that if you hold the nominal interest rate at zero forever, that there has to be a deflation. I have a model where that's not true. In fact, you can have a zero nominal interest rate forever, and that can be consistent with any inflation rate.
I don't think Lacker is necessarily Tayloresque. What he says is consistent with the way I think about it, which does not involve Taylor in the least.

I have a model ...ReplyDelete
Applying that model to 2005/2009, what did the model predict when the Fed tightened with private debt at 300% (+/-) of GDP?
Looking ahead to 2013/14, since private debt will still be 300% of GDP (+/-), does your model predict the same result as what we experienced in 2008/09, if the Fed were to tighten.
If not why haven't you corrected this obvious "design flaw?"
IOW Lacker is, at best, a Bourbon, never learning, etc.
Or said differently, given that only the level of private debt matters, until we do something about private debt levels, who is kidding who?
This morning I had an opportunity to read a very interesting essay, This Time It is Different, by Steve Roth over at AngryBearBlog.comReplyDelete
Using the work or Keen and others, Roth shows that we have (as most of us on the street have known) been in a depression since 2001, with spending supported by home equity withdrawals.
Roth's view is that the prosperity of the 1990s left us without enough money, which was papered over by the massive increase in private debt.
Very interesting stuff, with broader and deeper insights than found here.
I have always approached the problem from a different perspective. Being a true Keynesian, I have always favored paying down gov't debt during any period of prosperity. However, with a deep understanding of private banking, I have also understood that such would work only if the private banking system was extremely broad, deep, and especially robust and aggressive in making loans in the the face of losses. Having to take on full reponsibilty for creating all the money needed by a rapidly growing economy through private debt is an undertaking of vast proportions and responsibility.
"However, with a deep understanding of private banking..."ReplyDelete
That's funny. I've been reading your comments, and you seem to be a rather shallow and confused person.Replies

Mozart's sophisticated opera about two men seeing just how faithful their fiancées are has seldom been so marvelously done.

November 1, 2012
Kristen's press conference:
via @hypable
Question: Bella's a tiger let out of a cage in this one. What was that like as an actres, especially doing it at the same time as BD 1 – so in one shoot you were caged, the next you weren't.
Kristen: I was really lucky to have played human Bella for so long. The best aspects of every vampire, it's an enhanced version of when they were human. I got to take those steps for real, turning into a vamp. If you were to take the fact that she becomes a vampire completely away, this is just a more realized version of who she's been the whole time. It's why it touches so many people.
Kristen: It was also like breaking her in like a car, asking 'how fast? how fast can she go?'
Question: What did you keep from the set?
Kristen: I kept the rings. The rings are really important to me. There was the moon ring, which is from the first film and reminds me of Catherine Hardwicke. And the wedding ring I have too. Other than that, Bella's not really into stuff. The rings are extremely important to me.
Question: For you, what was the moment when you raelized how big this thing was going to be?
Kristen: it's grown so much, even recently. I don't know if we've ever – I've never realized the extent its gotten to. Comic Con for me was the first hit of human energy, and I knew this wasn't a normal movie. We've always approached Twilight – it felt like something very much our own. That first dose of sharing it with the fans was mind blowing.
Kristen: The coolest thing about the job actually – when you like something together, you're going to like it more. I was excited that we were going places and incredibly overwhelmed.
Question: Thanks for bringing such a realism to Bella Swan. Now that Bella's a vampire, you got to do kick ass stunt work. Talk about that.
Kristen: I broke my thumb like the second day, it was a lot of fun though. I got a little taste of the stunt work when we were in Italy, physicality was so important then – then it became important again. What can I say.. I've been on the sidelines for so long, just itching to get involved as a vamp. So I was bursting to do it. And that's probably why I broke my thumb, I was overzealous.
Question: I found it so cool, as a 14 year old, that 18 year old Bella is so young to be turned into a vamp. If you could pause your life at one age, what would it be?
Kristen: I don't know – I haven't gotten to that point yet. I'm not sure, someone asked me recently and I couldn't answer it then either.
Kristen: I just haven't gotten to that point of wanting to pause life yet.
Question: Along those same lines, I was wondering… Bella's journey, how did it parallel with your own journey?
Kristen: Without taking any of the truth out of this.. it's all sort of general. Like I was just saying, it's about that period: "Do I go with this, or is that crazy?" I think as an adult, the answer is "absolutely." You question yourself along the way, and you should never stop doing that. You should always question, push harder. I think it gets a little easier – I definitely feel a bit more realized – a lot more actually. It was just by chance we happen to be the same age. It's a tough one because she lives so many years.
Question: How have these movies affected your film career going forward with new film choices?
Kristen: I've always – a question that I can't answer, "What can you do next?" Doesn't make any sense because it's such an outsiders perspective.Things have fallen in my lamp, I've gotten incredibly – insanely lucky. If I could keep doing that I'll be a happy girl.It's always a pretty impulsive thing. You can read a fantastic script and it may not be in you to do.
The next question is a spoiler, so we won't live blog it.
Major spoiler that fans will want to see in the theater.
Without spoiling it: Kristen's talking about how the ending is romantic, and Bill really had his finger on it.
Question: What was it like playing a mother? Did it change how you look at your own mom?
Kristen: I think that it might be something you're born with. Some people have really really strong, natural instincts to be a mom. That was one of my favorite parts of the story from day one. There was never much about that in the story. So having Stephenie Meyer there was helpful.
Kristen: It didn't change much about me or view of my mother. But what better way to share vampire's animalistic nature than that. But I don't think.. I've always really felt I have a great relationship with my mom. That's just what it is. If I had an answer I would totally give it.
Kristen: I can't wait to be a mom… but I can wait (Laughter)
Question: What bonds have the three of you formed that 10, 20 years from now only you will understand?
Kristen: Its nice to not be alone, we're in this together. We share the movies. Another really common question is, "What's it like to walk away from this?" Generally I don't have to walk away from anything. We hold this as we move on. I think Rob and Taylor feel the same way
Question: Are you glad it's over? Finally?
Kristen: I'm so happy that the story is told, you have no idea. Usually you have five weeks, five months to look at a schedule. We had five years. So the fact that this thing is out and it's not weighing on us anymore – SUPER excited about that. Not that I'm glad it's over, I'm glad the story is now complete.
Kristen: It is sad, it is strange. But it's normal – things shouldn't stay. They've gotta move on.
Question: Would you be open to doing another film series?
Kristen: Yeah. It depends, it's hard to sign on to something before you know.
Question: Say they wanted you to sign on for something that's five films. Would you say yes?
Kristen: My guess is probably not, only because it's rare to find something that is this great.
Kristen: Never say never.
Question: What would you like to give your character for the holiday?
Kristen spent a lot of time thinking about the answer, asked the fansite ops who suggested a gift for Renesmee.
Question: Would you like to live forever?
Kristen: No.
Question: Has there ever been a question you wish the press asked you?
Kristen: No… thankfully.
RT @RPLife: " I was starstruck by Kristen too when we first met."
RT @VH1Celebrity: "we're so close right now, they're some of my best friends." Tay on Rob and Krisen. "Our friendships will go one forever."

Sky's the Limit
Tom "Sky" Skibosh covers the Wauwatosa, Brookfield and New Berlin prep scene for Community Newspapers. If something is going on in local sports, Sky has an opinion about it. If you agree or not with what Sky says, we want to see your comments.
GMC girls basketball race may take on a different look
Based on a couple things that happened over the weekend, the Greater Metro Conference race may include more than just preseason favorites Menomonee Falls and Divine Savior Holy Angels.
It looks like the talented Indians (3-1, 6-1) may be without the best player in the league (Janelle Gabrielsen) the rest of the way. The word going around the league this weekend is that Gabrielsen, who was suffering from what was believed to be shin splits, actually has fractures in her ankles, and will have surgery now so she will be able to honor her volleyball scholarship in the fall. The talented Indians will still be a force, but anyone missing a talent like Janelle is losing a lot.
Hale's Wagner does Red Raiders a favor ... kind of
I had a chance to see West Allis Hale's 54-53 victory over previously unbeaten (in the GMC) Brookfield Central Tuesday night and I think Huskie center Rick Wagner did Wauwatosa East a favor, sort of.
Wagner scored 20 points to spark the Huskies' upset of the Lancers (3-1) and moved Hale into a second-place tie in the Greater Metro Conference behind unbeaten Tosa East (5-0, 10-0). Wthout a doubt, he is the best big man I have seen so far this season.
Tosa East faces two different rivals this week
Wauwatosa East boys basketball team plays three games this week, two against "rivals."
The Red Raiders (6-0, 11-0) travel to Brookfield Central tonight (4-1, 8-3) to face the Lancers, who next to Marquette, are Tosa East's biggest Greater Metro Conference rival. When Tosa East plays the Hilltoppers, it is no secret that there is not a lot of love between the teams (in most sports), despite the politically correct quotes the coaches give out.
Exam week gives me time for a look back at last week's highlights
With most athletes off until later this week because of exam week, let's take a look at some highlights from the past week in Brookfield and Wauwatosa prep sports.
Wauwatosa East's 160-pounder Nick Morin became the all-time winningest wrestler in Tosa history by winning four matches last week (103-34). He surpassed Jake Benedict's 102 victories from 2001-05.
Some random thoughts on prep basketball
If you have seen the Brookfield East girls' offense lying around somewhere, please give basketball coach Tara Schmitt a call.
The Lady Spartans, who were sitting pretty in the Greater Metro Conference race just a week ago with a 4-1 record, have dropped two straight games to West Allis schools, scoring 28 and 35 points in losses to Central and Hale. Tuesday night they have a huge game with first-place Brookfield Central.
